I agree with others. There is nothing wrong with the urge to "collect" bullion coins, but I would suggest going to a coin show and picking out the...
Yes, it is pointed out, but Ray Charles knows its tooled without having to be told. My concern is selling such a thing for any price. To me, the...
I will not say where this photo is from, but was shocked the firm is selling it. This is one of the worst examples of her I have ever seen...
The reason for the huge swoon in PT is the near death of diesel car engines. I like PT at these prices, and am placing another order tomorrow, but...
Um, I know about Collectors Universe. I used to be a shareholder. Thanks for the condescension, though, always helpful to conduct a civilized...
Yes, cross membership of Board involvement happens quite a bit. However, it is reviewed by the SEC if the net affect of said cross membership...
So now you are attacking me for your lack of information and emotion on this thread. My recap is @C-B-D made an assertion. YOU stated "this is the...
So are you in a position to verify what @C-B-D asserts is untrue? You can say its "nonsense" all you want, but do you know no one at CAC is on any...

More people should read this. NEVER try to take out staples to remove coins from 2x2s. You WILL have an accident someday and seriously scratch a...
Oh, don't do that. Have you considered ancient coins? We HATE slabs. We have parties celebrating cracking them open. I keep the insert, since it...
I agree heartily with the thread. This is a nuance most new collectors do not get. A grade is a REPRESENTATION of the overall desirability of a...
This is what I do. PVC free plastic flips. I have two sides of the paper insert to write on, so easier than writing along the edges of cardboard...
Yep. Continuing game to force people to pay them ever more money. Someday, it will come to a point where everything is overgraded, than they will...
Not disagreeing sir, I have read similar. Just saying I could see more impromptu auctions happening this way fairly regularly before more formal...
